It was listed by Carse Antiques. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.
Carse Antiques has dated this piece to the 19th Century.
The silver is hallmarked .800 as pictured below. The jug has a very nice star cut base. The claret jug is obviously heavy, even when empty due to its huge size, it will take 3 bottles of wine to fill up. It is a real statement piece. The condition is very good with no flaws at all and no dents or scratches to the silver.
